so the nice folks at FCKH8.com decided to take this comic and put it in rainbow font and put their name on it without any source or indication that they didn’t create it. when questioned about crediting the artist, they got pretty sassy and have refused to do anything other than say “we’re looking up the artist” when you can find them by a quick google search of the first line of the poem. fun, right? 

edit: the original artist is aware of this, and has commented on fckh8.com’s facebook page claiming ownership. hopefully this gets fixed soon.

Hey guys, this is regarding my gender comic that FCKH8 decided to lift and plan to put on shirts without consulting me about it.

I’d really like for my comic and message to just remain free on the internet until (and if) I plan to make shirts/prints/etc myself.

Now I’m wondering how many other people they have stolen from.

(thanks to butt-punx for the post and signal boost- i really appreciate it)

props to you for handling this all so well <3 i would have been far less graceful about it. 

Signal boosting. This is shit.

—BB

This is bullshit.

Just to prove that assholes exist on all parts of the political spectrum.

Lazy assholes, no less.

Fckh8’s MO is selling good person points to yuppie cishets.

Ah, fuck. Why am I not surprised by this? (Answer: because the assimilationist white cis gay, gay, gay and gay movement does not give a fuck about us).

A thought about bisexual “myth busting”

Following this, this and some other conversations.

Reinforcing the notion that we’re “actually normal” isn’t fighting biphobia, but rather something more like a form of bi assimilationism. It does more to harm than benefit us, making bisexuals capitulate to social norms and throwing overboard everyone who doesn’t meet the standard.

What of the many, many people who don’t fit in the standard of the “normal bisexual”, or indeed the “good bisexual”? Some of us are sluts (read: sexually independent women), some of us are just experimenting, some of us like women only sexually, some like to have threesomes and perform bisexuality for men, some are AIDS and STI carriers, some don’t practice safer sex, some of us are indecisive and confused, some of us cheat on our partners, some of us do choose to be bi, and many many more things that the “myth busting” tries to cast off – and those are just the ones who are openly derided by the myth-busting. Bi people of color, bi trans and genderqueer people, bi sex workers, bi homeless people, bi working class people, bi disabled people and many many more bisexual groups are at best neglected by the bi movement if not outright rejected. Are all of those to mire behind while the beautiful, the good and the right run ahead?

A struggle for bisexual rights should be a struggle for everyone’s rights, and if the bisexual movement focuses its efforts only on the tiny group of people who do fit the standard, then something is very wrong indeed.

Just yes. No, no and no. Straight people: if you ever consider being an ally to me, never ever say that love is not political. &#8216;Cuz that just fails, K? Also, kindly avoid using the word &#8220;gay&#8221;, it makes me feel like you&#8217;re talking about other people when you&#8217;re actually talking about me. KTHX :D
